Yep, It Costs $79.99

Nintendo has introduced a sliding-scale pricing model for its Switch 2 games. While many first-party original Switch titles were priced at $59.99 (with notable exceptions like The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom at $69.99), the ceiling has been raised to $79.99 for Switch 2 games. Other titles like Mario Kart World also carry this new price tag, while some games are available at $69.99 or less.

Upgrade Pack Is Also Available Separately

This edition includes the original Switch game and the Switch 2 Edition upgrade pack. The upgrade pack enhances the base game with higher definition graphics and faster frame rates, plus it includes the Jamboree TV expansion content. If you already own the original game for Switch, you can purchase the upgrade pack separately from the Nintendo eShop or select retailers (as a printed download code), which can help you save some money.

The standout feature of this edition is the Switch 2-exclusive Jamboree TV expansion, introducing new modes and minigames to enhance your party experience. These minigames utilize new input methods unique to the Switch 2, including audio recognition, mouse controls, and more expressive rumble. Additionally, the expansion leverages the Nintendo Switch 2 camera accessory (available separately; see it at Target) for an immersive experience. With the camera, up to four players can see their faces incorporated into the game, participating in fun activities like balancing digital Goombas on their heads or hitting question blocks with Joy-Con controllers.

This expansion represents one of the most significant upgrades for a Switch 2 version of an original Switch game, making it a must-have for those who love hosting gaming parties with friends and family.

Our Review of the Original Game

The original Super Mario Party Jamboree on Switch was a standout, earning a 9/10 in our review. Here's an excerpt from our review:

“Super Mario Party Jamboree is an exceptional sequel to Mario Party Superstars and undoubtedly one of the best entries in the series. It not only returns to the beloved classic formula from the Nintendo 64 days but also enhances it with innovative boards featuring unique mechanics. The game offers unprecedented flexibility with various customization options, including the new Pro Rules that minimize luck and enhance strategy. The game's stellar maps are complemented by an impressive array of new and classic minigames, along with character-specific challenges that truly shine. While the side offerings might lack long-term appeal, Super Mario Party Jamboree delivers an outstanding multiplayer experience, both locally and online, cementing its status as the newest superstar in the series.”
